Lake & reservoir mapping in Alberta
Alberta's summer villages, irrigation districts and lake stewardship groups need clear data on depth, sediment and vegetation. We survey prairie reservoirs and boreal lakes alike.
Alberta has more than 600 named lakes and many irrigation reservoirs. Lake Monitor AI provides on-site bathymetric depth mapping, aquatic vegetation mapping, bottom composition and hardness mapping, fish and habitat mapping, side-scan imagery and GIS deliverables for waterbodies of every size across the province — from private ponds to major reservoirs.
